Dumb stuff?? Balloon busting! You are on a deep penetration raid, currently dealing w 100 plus interceptors at 25k alt. What do you do? Dive to 7k to bust a Ballon, I think not, if you did you would be busted to airman on return to base. More likely you get killed by Flak, get bounced due to lack of alt. Just an observation. Don't remember this from old talonsoft game

In the Talonsoft version i always had some balloon busters in my pilot pool but often enough they were lost due to hitting a cable while trying to mop up the balloons

It's an irritating feature, for sure
